~A Smile for Dad and a Challenge!~
May 16th, 2008 by Holly McMillen
Happy Friday!! Woohoo! I made it through another week!
Today’s Limited Supply challenge was to use only Alphabet stamps for your sentiment.. no other sentiment allowed. Well, I took the opportunity to pull out some old favorites to make my DH a father’s day card from the boys. I used Headline alphabet for the D and then Karen Foster snap stamps for the ‘dad’ tag. That’s about the limits of my alphabet stamps, too! LOL Hey, I even left out a layer just so it looks ‘limited’ for me.. 🙂
We’re also going to use this sketch for this week’s sketch challenge! (THSC13).
Here it is:
As usual, it’s a suggestion… play with it, flip it, embellish on it… whatever makes you happy! Please use keyword THSC13 when uploading to SCS so we can see them all together, or link back here so I don’t miss it!
Here’s the deets on my card:
Stamps: When I Grow Up by Su!, Aida BG by SU!, Headline Alphabet by SU!, Karen Foster snap stamps
Colors: Chocolate Chip, Bliss Blue, Creamy Caramel, MME DPs
Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black, Buckaroo Blue, Copics
Accessories: Brads, ribbon, dimensionals, scissors, oval scallop punches, word window punch
TFL!~ and have a blessed day!
Neat sketch Holly, love the colors too!
This little guy is too cute!!! I’m lovin’ that colour combo too. Thanks for the sketch – hope to have time to play with it today – if not this weekend for sure as it will be a nice break from the back yard plant moving etc. we have to do this long weekend :). Thanks for the kind comments on my cards yesterday too.
Oh my goodness, this is just the cutest card ever!!! I love that DP!!! Maybe I’ll have time to do this sketch later.

Holly, this image is just the sweetest ever! You’ve done a wonderful job with this card, it’s so stinkin’ cute!
What a cute image!! Love the color combo…..thanks for the sketch idea….need to find a 5 inch space of desk before trying that one!
Awesome father’s day card! I can’t believe I’ve never seen this set with the little boy dressed up in his daddy’s clothing…too cute!! I really love the sketch too!!!
..and of course, I wouldn’t mind if you added me to your blog list. How cool!! 🙂
Enjoy your weekend, Holly!

Okay, I got one done, but not so sure I’m liking it. Kind of went overboard with the focal image size…you did say we could take liberties, right?!!! 😉
